In this way he burned up the harvested wheat along with the grain waiting to be harvested, and the olive orchards as well. ⁶ The P’lishtim asked, “Who did this?” They answered, “Shimshon the son-in-law of the man from Timnah, because he took Shimshon’s wife and gave her to his best man.” Then the P’lishtim came up and burned both her and her father to death. ⁷ Shimshon said to them, “I will certainly have my revenge on you for doing such a thing; but after I do, I’ll stop.”
